The size of the problem

Half of America’s small businesses have no credit report. And you’re binding them blind.

How it works

Four steps.
Enrichment follows resolution.

Enrichment is only as good as the match underneath it. So the business is resolved and verified before a single finding attaches, then everything you need to price it arrives in one snapshot, with the source behind every field.

2
Resolve

Find the one business it is.

Anyone can enrich a record. Not everyone can tell you it’s the right record.

State filings, license boards, county records, the web, and thousands more sources are searched and linked, even when they share no common key. Lookalikes are ruled out. Right company, right location, right owner.

Lookalikes ruled out
3
Verify

Nothing shown unverified.

When two sources disagree, precedence decides which record wins; nothing gets averaged. Every field carries its source and a confidence, and what we couldn’t confirm is labeled, not filled in.

Every field sourced
4
Disclose

Price, defend, renew.

Then the rest attaches to the right business: firmographics, NAICS, OSHA, licenses, adverse media, litigation. Export an audit-ready PDF, and at renewal see what’s changed since bind.

Decision-ready, audit-ready
Snapshot features

Every layer of the snapshot — and where each one came from.

Once the business is resolved, every layer below attaches to it — the public sources Marvin™ reads, and the reasoning it applies to them. Layers marked Core+ are part of the Core+ data pack.

Company registration

Legal entity, structure, and active status — so the policy attaches to a real named insured.

Property verification

Insured locations, owned vs. leased, and building characteristics behind property and BOP exposure.

Property financialsCore+

Valuation and financial signal on the locations being rated.

Online presence

Website and domain age — how established and legitimate the operator looks.

Compliance · OSHACore+

Safety citations, penalties, and repeat violations — your clearest read on workers' comp loss exposure.

Form 5500Core+

The benefit-plan filing: true headcount, plan funding, and a quiet cross-check on company size.

Sec. of State

Confirms the entity is active and in good standing, with registration date and structure.

UCC filings

Liens against business assets that reveal secured debt, leverage, and financial stress.

FMCSA · SAFER

Federal motor-carrier record: DOT authority, fleet size, inspections, and crash history.

Liquor licenses

License status and class where alcohol is part of the operation and the exposure.

OFAC · restricted lists

Treasury sanctions and watchlist screening — the compliance gate to write an account at all.

Digital riskCore+

Email authentication (SPF, DKIM, DMARC) and cyber-hygiene warning signs.

Adverse mediaCore+

Continuous news scanning for litigation, breaches, recalls, and leadership trouble.

Business risk flagsCore+

The handful of findings that actually move the price, surfaced to the top first.

Marvin™'s analysis

The synthesis — what the findings mean together, which ones move the price, and what to do before you bind.

Risk level

The verdict — high, medium or low — driven by the findings that actually change exposure, not a generic score.

Confidence

How much corroboration sits behind the verdict: how many sources agreed, how recent they are, and what couldn't be checked.

Looking for a source we haven't listed yet? Let's talk

Our DNA

A decade of service to the industry.

Human connection — relationship, strategy, solutions. We start with the relationship, form a strategy, and land on a solution, together. We've worked this way since 2016; here's how it shows up. Full story

2016 · The problem came first

We started with the underwriter's question.

Long before anyone put “AI” on a pitch deck, we were chasing the data underwriters needed and couldn't get to fast enough. The question they were actually asking was why is this risk priced the way it is? — and underneath it, a harder one: is this even the right company? Marvin™ was born to answer both, with the source still attached.

Ownership · why we're like this
We take wrong data personally. Your hard problems are our hard problems. That's not a value on a wall — it's why the code is right. When your data is bad, our data is bad: every client here is someone we know by name, so a wrong class code isn't a support ticket, it's a bad night. We're paranoid about wrong data — on purpose. We assume we're wrong until we've checked, and we'd rather tell you a source came back empty than hand you a confident guess.
2016
Truth · for better or worse

We don't placate.

Every decision you make faces an audit, so every finding we hand you carries its source — and when a source comes back empty, we say so instead of guessing. We're an open book, and we ask the same of you: the real fill rate is how the real solution gets built.

Collaboration over transaction

Best in industry, because it's built with you.

Your problem becomes the roadmap — what you need next is what we build next. A direct line, answered, weekends included. Not a ticket in a queue: a seat in the room, with the team that's building it.

Marvin™ Tech · what's underneath

Right company, right location, right owner — before anything else.

Marvin™ resolves the entity first — even the businesses nobody else can find — then reasons across hard-to-reach government sites, the web, and a decade of our own data. Findings are sourced, cited, or flagged. Never asserted beyond what they can back.

Today

Still here. Still learning your book.

Ten years of commercial underwriting research means we've seen most workflows, most audit standards, most renewal rhythms. What compounds is what we know about your book — year over year.

The day-to-day difference

Same submission.
The blanks, accounted for.

Here's what changes when the research, the sourcing, and the gaps are handled for you. The time saved is real — but it's the proof, not the point.

We put our whole book through it. It came back with accounts we'd misclassified and filings that didn't match the risk — flags buried three sources deep, exposure we'd been pricing blind.
